Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to wiring components in a component based application and provide a method, system and computer program product for heuristically assembling components in a component based application. In one embodiment, a data processing system configured to assemble component based applications can include a component aggregation application including an application builder configured to assemble components into a component based application. The system further can include a property broker coupled to the component aggregation application and configured to apply a wiring scheme to selected components in a component based application. Finally, a collaborative heuristic integration matching engine (CHIME) can be coupled to the property broker and a data store of behaviorally derived data, the CHIME including program enabled to suggest components for assembly in a component based application based upon behaviorally derived data in the data store.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer-readable code for decoupling data structure updates from a user-manipulable view of the data structure that is presented to the user in a graphical user interface. The data structure updates are buffered, and applied selectively, enabling the user to manipulate the data structure without interference from the update process. Preferably, the presentation of the items in the view indicates graphically that updates are pending (e.g. through use of a distinguishable font or icon). The update process may be triggered by user request, timer-driver means, or other user-configurable event(s). The update process may include use of one or more display filters, that serve to limit what is shown to the user in the resulting updated view. This filtering will be particularly useful for devices that have a limited amount of display space.
